I built mine on a Thursday rather than a Saturday, but it still came out great!! Thanks for the video and the link to the plans.
Turned out great.
A sponsored video with five commercial breaks in 19 minutes! That's what makes America great!
Mike: I built a bench using your plans in July 2021. We lost a Boy Scout to a fentanyl overdose and built one of these benches in his name for a local Boy Scout facility. Now 3 years later, we're going to build another one for an eagle scout project. Thanks very much.
Good Morning to all! This looks like a good Saturday morning project.
Like and enjoy the videos!
Just built one myself, thanks!
Your video is way better than the plans. Nice job.
Great Job Mike! Really appreciate your no-nonsense, get-to-the-point instructions.
Already had the wood and plans for a different bench. Tossed those plans and will pick up what else I need. Glad I found this.
Rounding over the front edge on front seat board would make it more comfortable.
I was thinking the same thing
Nice job. Better put some cup holders in the armrests for those lounging around the pool parties.
I couldn’t say that fast enough!
Good morning Mike and Melissa have a great day God Bless from Joel in Pilot Knob,Mo
Mike, your "building videos" are always super informative, and incredibly well videoed!!! Thank you
Enjoyed watching this build! Love the fact that you don't "not mention" the small errors but you "own them" and showed how to correct them. The benches will be perfect for the wedding AND the patio area. #HaveADay
Mike,
A tip from a Master Bluebird house builder, the next time you are at Home Despot pick up a wax ring used to set Toilets. Smash it in a shallow plastic container with a lid. When you start a project where you are using screws dip the tip of the screw into the wax. You will be pleasantly surprised at how well the screws will go into the wood plus it helps to not split the ends of the wood. Like you did, I pre drill all my holes.
When You started making the bench I knew You were gonna pre drill those holes to stop them from splitting I always do especially on the end joints.👍🙏🇺🇸
Good morning Mike and Melissa, great job with the Park Bench build. Turned out really nice. Thanks for sharing with the building projects website with us. Fred. 👏🏻👏🏻👍👍👋👋🙏🏻🙏🏻
Sounds like Spring!
Good morning Fred ;-)
Morning Fred, Badcat
Mike - Great looking bench, and is designed simple enough I feel confident I could build one. Just noticed Mark Lengal's comment - what an act of generosity, giving away a $100 bench. Blessings to you and the family. Hi to Melissa, Hunter, Hannah, and Eva.
Good looking park bench!!! We built 52 of those built out of cedar for the county park last year. Once they dryed out, we used a natural stain and sealer, followed by 2 coats of polyurethane. Turned out great
Nice garden bench. Looks easy to build. Thank you for the step by step instructions.
Nice work Mike. Try to get a Yellawood sponsorship for the next ones.
Have a productive day.
My 11 yr old son and I just finished this. It was the perfect project for him to learn how to read a tape, use a drill and change the bits, as well as understand that most times projects completed by weekend warriors are rarely perfect... lol. Thanks for the detailed video!
Thx Mike & Exmark.....was gonna clean the garage today and now I’m gonna build a bench AND I don’t even need one!
That's one sturdy bench! My wife saw it and now it looks like I'm going to build one for her garden... Thanks for the plans (and addition to my "honey do" list!)
Good morning Hunter ;-) and Happy Caturday to all ;-)
Always a pleasure to watch a person who knows how to build properly and work with the right tools. Thanks Mike.
Greetings Mike! Thank you for the Outdoor Garden Bench project, I recently constructed one and I just love it. I'm thinking about modifying the plan to seat three people. I came to the conclusion that the extra 2x4 was not extra. I think it was intended for leg support, to keep the legs from twisting (warping), but was not included in the instructions. I also found and error in the print on the instructions where it shows the cut for the angle, where the armrest meets the back rest. The instruction has 15" and it should be 15 degrees. Mike I really enjoy your post. You really make things simple.
Keep enjoying the outdoors. Thank you.
Mike, this is a very thorough, detailed video with an impressive accompany write up. I have reviewed many videos for my diy bench and your video by far beats them all in many different ways. Great job. Thank you for the much needed help.
Good morning Morgan’s! Great looking bench Mike. Homemade touches for the wedding will be great! Have a day!
Just down loaded the plans. This would look good on front porch of home. That was a nice build that even I can do[I thunk!]! Have a good day and be safe.
Love it!!! I'll have to build wifey & me one. Job well done Mike.
Hi Mike, I just finished my bench and I love it. Thank you so much for posting.
Dang Mike, you should look into being the head of the East Coast Professional Homeowners Association. Speaking of that, you might want to mention in your next sawmill video how you bought quality and your sawmill just runs and runs and runs, and can cut all the way through some pretty big eastern hardwoods, not just 12” of western semi-hard wood.
Nice👍👍👍
Ha, Ha, Ha. When you look at the end of the video and you're behind the bench you look like "Tim Conway" when he was doing his dorf comedy sketches. Just got a laugh from that. LOL
ROFL, I thought the same thing!! :)
I see it
I was just going to say the same thing. I had to look up Tim Conway to figure out the skit name Dorf. That is so funny. Great video, but I'm not sure if I'll ever look at Mike the same. Dang that's funny
Thaaaat's who I was trying to recall,.. I knew there was something funny about that camera angle and Mike,...good one!
I was thinking the same thing
Really enjoy the details you provided for this do it yourself project. Thank you
Norm Abrams couldn't have done much better. (Norm for President!!!!) On my own stuff, I use a roundover bit in the router for all exposed edges and corners. Also, since I'm leery of treated lumber for animals or people, and because it is expensive, i use yellow pine where I can, and spray it or brush on a thinned coat or two of linseed oil. Soaks in, keeps bugs out, sort of waterproof. Pioneers used it, Amish use it....good enough for me. Works on whatever is wood, for example butcher blocks, firewood sheds.
Now that's a stretch! ( comparing Norm's work to this LOL! )
Thank you soooo muchhhh.. i searched a lot to find something like that to teach me in details how to build bench.. and i start losing hope because all the videos i watch was not only very difficult they using too much tools and equipment i don't have it and they make everything hard to me so you are really amazing in explaining everything really appreciated you turn it it simple and easy..i'm a beginner and it's hobby for me.. so i will use all your details to build my bench..many thanks you are so good and great teacher i'm grateful i found you ✌🏾
Atta boy Mike! You did a good job building that bench. Thank you.
Been there. Done the daughter's wedding on the property. Take a 10 to 12 inch log. Put it on your mill and spilt it down the center. Cut to bench lengths desired. Flip half round slabs upside down on two larger rounds with V notches cut into them. Wala! "Free" rustic benches that make the guests be like "wow." Beats $100 benches any day. LOL
Looks great Mike, maybe stencil one Bride & Groom and they can have it for their new home.
Thank you....very informative video. You keep it simple and show your steps.
Nice bench and an easy to follow demonstration
Great presentation! Thank you.
Hey Mike, I loved the video. It was super helpful and easy to complete! I didn't own a
scroll saw or jig saw to make the rounded cuts for the arm rests so I bought two
treated pickets that were rounded on one end. So, I just made a straight cut and it turned out
great. Lots of fun. Thanks again!
Excellent video…congrats to your daughter.✝️
Thanks for sharing the plan.
Been looking for a simple way to make a nice uncomplicated garden bench for a while and this does the job perfectly. Can't wait to bugger it up🤣 Seriously,can be done with the simplest of tools.
Yep no problem, just take your time
Thanks Mike. I'm gonna try a few of these this spring.
Just built a pair of these, using the Yellawood plans/video, and referring to your video often for the "real world" challenges. Like you, I opted not to follow the Yellawood recommendation of building the back as one separate chunk, but rather assembling it on the fly to the seat as I went. Worked great! 🙋♂️
Nice lookin little bench. Thanks for sharing. Stay well, stay safe and yall HAVE A DAY
Thank you for showing me how to do this, I had to modify a little bit because I used 2x6 for everything(got it for free). Perfect gift for Mother’s Day
Maybe I can also trick my daughter into buying me a whole bunch of tools for her wedding 🤔
Great looking bench Mike. Thanks for sharing and the build demo.
Hey Mike, enjoyed the video and thanks for going over the building of the bench. I'm one that can't even build a good dog house, but I'm gonna give this a shot in a couple of weeks..lol Thanks once again you all have a great day and God bless you and your family.
This is perfect for my next project. Thank you
Awsome Job Mike !!
That makes a nice Bench! You make it look easy!!👍👊
I like the bench, a simple build for ANY would be Carpenter!!! I built a similar chair & bench 30 odd years ago from plans I got at a local lumber yard. This during my "wanting to be a half-ass carpenter days"!!! Not sure I ever got there, but I tried and was satisfied with the finished product!!! Good Job Mike!!!
Very cool bench. We are preparing for a backyard wedding as well. Our youngest daughter. Lost our picnic bench in a wildfire a few years back. Bet the wife would love a few of these to go around the house and possibly out at the cabin! Thanks for the plans.
I’ll be making these soon. Thanks for the idea and plans
Awesome job Mike!
This could very well be my next project. Thanks Mike!
Nice bench, Mike. I need to make a couple of these for my hunting/fishing camp. They will work out great there. Thanks for the idea and the video. Have a day!
Good Morning Mike, thanks for this video. So cool and easy.
Watched this video when it came out. Home this weekend and building two know. Thanks
I'm going to give this a try over winter thank you great video
Nicely done. I agree with the 1/4" round over comment. I typically use 1/8" round over for cross cuts.
Mike I have to agree you look like Tim Conway Dorf. I would have routed the edges to keep them from stabbing people behind their knees. Thank for sharing your video with us. Hello Hunter., Ed
Great job! Looks good.
Nice simple bench,love it,thank you😊
Nice. You made it look easy. Thanks
By the way Mike excellent job! I really enjoy carpentry work! It’s nice to see a finished product! 🙏👍🇺🇸
Great instructional video Mike. I might just try it.
I really enjoy when you do build videos. You do a good job with the videos. I can't remember how long ago you did your shooting bench but when you put that video out I built the same bench for my father on father's day.
Great work!
Looks good Mike! I built a similar bench but modified it to have a flat shelf across the back for setting down a "beverage" etc.
Gonna build 2 of these, thanks tons, Mike. I've got one nice, cool spot on my property where people like to carry chairs and sit under a tree. This will solve that problem. Stay safe and best wishes.
Good job Mike👍
Thank you so much, this is just what i was looking for : ) greetings from Colombia.
I Like that bench Mike. Great Job.
Super informative vid. Thanks for the help.
Great build Mike, you should have been a shop teacher. I'm saving this video I'm going to build this bench. Thanks for sharing have a wonderful weekend
Great project , Thanks
Thanks Mike... great step by step video... I'm building mine this week using your video..
Have fun!
Great job,I’m building jumpers for my kids,I will save this to make a bench.Thank you and have great weekend.
Nice project for sure 👍
It looks good
Hi Mike the bench will look great have a day love from TEXAS
Great job really looks good
Nice presentation!
Dang! Well done... THANKS!
Now if you only knew someone with a sawmill...but seriously take that red pine and build your benches and put a shou sugi ban finish on them. I believe they will last as long as the pressure treated benches
My exact thoughts 👍
Love it!
I really like that bench. I’ll have to build one. Thanks 👍👍👍❤️
Very nice bench It’s a Must have 👍👍👍
Great simple design. Comfortable removable cushions would be a nice feature.
Its very good
Nice project for a Saturday afternoon.
Very nice bench, thanks!
